Abstract

Objective: To observe the effects of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), and vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) on the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) into lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs). Methods: The third to the fifth passage of BMSCs of rats were collected for the following experiments. (1) BMSCs of rats were collected and divided into negative control group, CD90 group, CD44 group, and CD34 group according to the random number table (the same grouping method below), with 3 samples in each group. Phosphate buffer of 5 μL was added to cells in negative control group, and cells in the other 3 groups were added with 5 μL corresponding antibodies respectively. The positive expression of cell surface antigen was detected by flow cytometer. (2) BMSCs of rats in 3 batches were collected and divided into blank control group, VEGF-C group, HGF group, bFGF group, VEGF-C+ HGF group, VEGF-C+ bFGF group, HGF+ bFGF group, and VEGF-C+ HGF+ bFGF group, with 3 samples in each group. Cells in blank control group were added with 2 mL complete medium, cells in VEGF-C group were added with 2 mL complete medium and 10 μL VEGF-C of 10 μg/mL, cells in HGF group were add...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
